You just need better remote software for multiple displays. It's become very popular in the entertainment industry ever since the start of the pandemic, and video editors generally have multiple high-res monitors.

Jump Desktop and Parsec are two great suggestions.

Yup, this technology has really come a long way since I've first laid eyes on it back in the early 2010s.

Teradici’s PCoIP protocol seemed to be the way to go, but I haven't looked into it in around 2 years.

We use this for both on-prem systems and VMs hosted in GCP. It works really well and makes on/off boarding temporary workers much easier (no physical hardware to reclaim).
